Highlights

  • EUR/BRL has faced ongoing pressure due to the Real's strength, resulting in declines against the euro.

Real demand rises as Bolsonaro lead boosts investor optimism

According to Fxstreet, the Brazilian Real appreciated by around 4% with USD/BRL moving from 5.2 to 5, as F. Bolsonaro’s election lead increased investor confidence in the Real and drove demand for BRL. This political development positively influenced BRL performance against major currencies, affecting the Euro vs Brazilian Real exchange rate by strengthening the local currency. The current shift in BRL demand has contributed to sustained pressure on EUR/BRL, though price action has remained under broader selling pressure.

Bearish momentum intensifies as support levels repeatedly breached

Technically, EUR/BRL is well below its MA-20, MA-50, and MA-200 levels. The Ichimoku Kijun sits at R$5.6025, establishing immediate resistance for intraday moves. Oscillators show distinctly bearish momentum, as MACD is on a strong sell signal and ADX indicates clear seller control. RSI, Stoch RSI, and CCI all register in oversold territory, while Bull/Bear Power and the Awesome Oscillator confirm dominant seller momentum and a sustained downtrend.

Sideways bias dominates as volatility defines near-term risks

EUR/BRL is likely to remain within the projected range of R$5.4917 to R$5.6621 over the next two to three sessions, in line with its typical volatility. The scenario with the highest probability is sideways trading inside this band, while any upside would require a decisive break above R$5.6025. If the lower support near R$5.4917 is breached, downside extension is likely, given the persistent negative momentum.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees recent political momentum in Brazil as a strong driver of Real demand. He notes that BRL strength is putting sustained pressure on EUR/BRL, with technicals showing persistent bearish momentum. The analyst believes the pair is likely to remain capped below resistance near R$5.6025 unless sentiment reverses. Sideways or lower movement is favored in the near term. "With the Real benefiting from positive political sentiment and seller momentum still dominant, I expect further downside in EUR/BRL unless key resistance is broken decisively."

Earlier, analysts noted that EUR/BRL was dominated by persistent selling pressure and maintained a broadly bearish outlook. The present analysis reinforces this view with updated technical signals and ongoing political support for the real, highlighting the importance of monitoring any breach of the R$5.4917 support as a trigger for further downside.
